What's the best strategy to migrate people of age to use matrix instead of the alternatives? With the implementation of space coming in soon, I would like other people to use this instead of discord, whatsapp, and other insidious applications.

No of course not. How could I possibly have proof of something like that? Do you have proof that cycling is faster than walking?

But I will share something I wrote already.

Signal:

  • based in usa
  • requires phone number
  • all client and server software owned and controlled by one company
  • no federation
  • has no web app

Wire:

  • don't have most of the terrible problems (is based in switzerland for example)
  • nobody uses it. for some reason everybody uses signal.
  • has a very fun built in drawing app.

That doesn't answer the question. You can answer how secure Signal is with an audit. You can also answer the question if cycling is faster than walking by doing a study. I didn't say walking is faster than cycling though, I asked for proof of your claim.

So, I guess, Wire is not more secure than Signal, as I thought.
